The Good Father is published today. It’s my best book, my most personal book, the book that most closely approaches what it was that I set out to do. I hope you’ll give it a try…📚

Thanks so much @Furtherfrom for stocking this lovely pile of my new novel #WhispersInTheGlen. Much appreciated! @SarabandBooks
It's the summer holidays! With glorious sunshine and spectacular jousting on the peel... We are open 12-4, so why not pop in for a book? Or ask about our upcoming Postman Bear event or our Nicola Atkinson signing?

Oh wow! @CallumGRobinson, author of #Ingrained and one of our favourite people in general has WON the #IndieBookAwards in the Non-Fiction category! We're pleased as punch for him - particularly as #Linlithgow is such a prominent character in it! CONGRATULATIONS Callum!

Well done, Marcus That’s an astonishing achievement! Congratulations from 3 dads 🚶🏻‍♂️‍➡️🚶🏻‍➡️🚶🏼‍♂️‍➡️
£100,000 RAISED 🤯 Truly speechless. When I began running I said my all time goal was to raise 100K for @mindcharity - never did I imagine we would do it on this challenge alone. I don’t even know how to word this, this is already the greatest day of my life and I haven’t even finished the run yet. To whoever donated £20,000 anonymously, you have a heart of gold and thank you so much for believing in the challenge. Thank you to EVERYONE who has supported, I will forever be grateful for you all ❤️ 16 miles to go!

Linlithgow folks! One of my favourite bookshops in the country, Far From The Madding Crowd @Furtherfrom, is stocking copies of TERMINAL. Reviews say TERMINAL “summons the likes of Poe and RLS,” and that it’s “for those with a love of anything Black Mirror-esque”.

Just finished this astonishing book. Can’t recall another that reaches every emotion. The anger and the tears… Moving and gritty, it is also heart-warming, written with such tender beauty. Cannot recommend this enough @canongatebooks @annaframe @writerkcampbell
